I am a 35 year old stay at home mom. I am not a party animal and never have been. My BF, also my chlidrens father, has social anxiety and has no desire to go out and do anything fun. He is 30. Im sick of staying home. I usually go out with a girlfriend of mine every other month. I usually have a really good time. I am beginning to make friends and having an adult social life. I am meeting men and women.......nothing sexual. I am exposed to various types of bands, art, and trendy little bars. Im thinking once a week is good to get out of the house. What do you guys think?

Absolutely!! At least 1, sometimes 2. Let's go out tonight. I know lots of trendy lil' places.
Ignore the Sunday School teacher. That's retarded.

Once a week is great! If something special comes up, don't hesitate to go out twice in a week or to go away for a few days. What's important is that your children see you as the role model that they can use for their future problem solving and decision making. By following through with your current "plan" they will have a positive lesson and you will have a better life.

Honestly? I think in time, you are going to meet another man who excites you more than the one sitting at home. Do everything you can to get him motivated to go with you. Maybe he doesnt' like bars...many don't. Maybe you can't afford a babysitter and he's doing you a favor. Anxiety? Is he counselling for this disorder.
What really amazes me, is women get with men and already know about their likes and dislikes, then try to change them into something they're not. You knew about this a long time ago.
I think you both need to see someone before it's too late.

You sound like you have your act together and as long as things stay in a healthy (getting out the house thing) this is good for me. then i would say once a week ,it would give you something to look forward to. Your boyfriend might decide to go too.

Does it cause friction between you and the boyfriend? If not, then once a week would be fair. If he doesn't like it, perhaps you could compromise on once every two weeks. (Compared to every other month - you'd be going out much more often) Would you be prepared to put your relationship with both your boyfriend and kids in jeopardy by going out regularly?

thats sucks that your guy doesnt want to go out anymore. I say you tell him ones a week and if he doesnt like it to go out with YOU twice a month. You deserve a life and please...i CANNOT stay at home more than a week.

I don't think you need to go out every week. I think once, absolutely no more than twice a month is enough. So, you're asking, how many times a week, I don't think you should go every week.

Once a week is fine and is not too much to ask.
